<h1 class="topictitle1">How Do I Change the Number of NFS Volumes Mounted to an ESXi Host?</h1>
<div><p>Live mount is to mount the linked clone of a copy generated on the <span>OceanProtect</span> to an ESXi host, create an NFS datastore, and start the VM. If the number of mount jobs created on a single ESXi host exceeds the maximum number of NFS volumes that can be mounted, the mount jobs will fail. To change the number of NFS volumes that can be mounted to an ESXi host, perform the following steps (vCenter 6.7.0 is used as an example):</p>
